A collection of amazing 1 volume manga that can be read in one sitting, for anyone wanting a short but tantalizing read.

Some are not for the faint-hearted.

manga that are abstract and/or weird in terms of story and/or art. reminiscent of urban graffiti and scrawls of notebook sketches and diaries. list is merely just shower thoughts, there are lists better than this with more variety. for the dead minded.

From psychedelic/trippy stories to overall unique and bizarre reads, this stack definitely has the "wtf" factor. Read at your own discretion 🤓

Short manga that pack quite a punch. All are under 8 volumes.

Great manga under 10k members (as of 05/02/2023)

The psychological genre is one that has boundless freedom in exploring it's themes, since the topic of human psyche, our behaviour and mind's patterns are something far too personal and individual.

The works that are part of this genre are conceived to kindle their reader's contemplation - about themselves, of the world presented in the story, as well as our own, and how shockingly similar or different they appear to be.

As well as that, this genre is usually focused on exploring two general types of personalities - ones that are seeking their true self, their place in this world and the significance and worth of their existence. The other usual psychological profile is one that is already established, presenting us an image that starts to crumble bit by bit, their core values degrade and all they're left with is a husk of their former selves, devoid of emotion, empathy or will to exist.

Besides the psychological portraits, the reader can find a lot of abstract concepts and subtle symbolism, which enhances the experience. Often times the art can be radical, provocative and avant-garde, or nuanced and subdued, but in all of these works, it does strives to accomplish one thing - to provoke us to think outside the box, to present us worlds or people that are inherently broken, but which has their importance and meaning, and which are not afraid to challenge our currently established worldviews.
